Help us push the availability and reliability of cloud infrastructure to new heights! The AWS Data Center Systems & Automation team builds services to monitor and operate data center infrastructure, including Cloud Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems. Our services directly contribute to the high availability of AWS data centers and Amazon's sustainability goals. Teams in Data Center Automation solve problems of massive data ingestion and processing, build distributed cloud computing systems, work on data visualization, anomaly detection, analytics, and graph databases.

You'll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you'll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.
